Thanks Don, do you think the Ukrainians don't thrash the bridge thinking that they will ever recover Crimea?

Jose Javier when the Ukrainians get back Crimea, why would they need a bridge to Russia?

Hi Helene, In the sense that it does not become a new South Korea. They will continue to be neighbors, in one way or another they will exchange goods and services . .

The bridge was built after Russian seized Crimea in 2014. Ukraine did just fine without a bridge before. I'll let them describe what the bridge means to them.

Man that MTLB external combustion vid is weird, it’s like both top tanks got poked and are dumping fuel into the tracks and it’s just gettin flung forward and ignited by who knows what. Can’t have felt great inside that kettle either way…

Indeed, I was watching that slack-jawed and expecting to have the bearings seize due to high temperatures. It was awesome that it survived all this

Certainly it's in trouble if it stops without any extinguishers. It would be interesting to see the conclusion.

Thank you Don. Especially the article about Mr. Dougan was horrible eye opening.

It seems that this sea drone destroyed by a Russian drone was a stationary target (painted white and with a red stripe? Quite strange, as all sea drones used by Ukraine were painted a dark grey)
